the stars look like they are almost moving while the poll stays stationary and "grounds" you - great job!

The stars are not moving but the earth is.. the spin of the earth drew the arcs in the sky!

.very cool. i wish i had a camera that let me do nightphotos.

What kind of camera do you have? I am sure that it can do what i did here. This was only a 15 second exposure. You only need about 8 seconds to reduce some speeding cars to a field of lights.

.nah i know mine doesnt let me set the exposure time..i really need to get a better camera.

This is awesome. I just tried to do something like this earlier tonight but it didn't come out nearly as good as this did.
Then again the longest shot i did was about 4 minutes tops...
I'll have to try longer next time... by the way, what was the moon phase when you took this shot?

Get yourself well outside of the cities... Use the largest aperature .... use your tripod and cable release/ self timer. bring blankets.....

Interesting shot,
I just learned something,
I didn't realize that there where any production digital cameras including dSLRs that could do exposures longer than 30sec,
This interests me because I sometimes do stuff with long exposures and want to try some longer than 16sec for certain stuff such as light painting,
Maybe in a few years I might go to a true dSLR, instead of my limited SLR-like camera,
Did you have to do anything special to get your digital to do such a long exposure?

The best thing you can to is use a cable or wireless release, Mirror lockup and a tripod. There are some cameras that have a bulb mode so all you have to do is set it to bulb mode and do everything you can from there not to move or bump anything. If you are doing long exposures like this especially of something like the sky you want to use the largest aperature avaliable to reduce the exposure time and thus the noise. For this shot i borrowed a tripod from Jen and I fashoned something to hold down the shutter release button out of a hair tie and a piece of Construction Paper 
Oh yeah and get as far away from the cities as you can

Hi, came across this while browsing the galleries.
This is really cool. And, actually, I'm not sure if the light pollution is such a bad thing, in this case. It adds a sort of surreal, maybe even dream-like, element to the picture. It's quite pretty.

Have a nice day!

Definately worth all the hard work you put into it! I love the way you have a main focus the wire thing (not sure what they're called, lol

This is the only one of three shots that turned out. It is actually a 20 Minute exposure. The streaks or "rain" you see in the sky are stars. The movement of the earth is seen in the paths they make across the sky. If i could get farther away from the cities i would have a much better time trying to have successful results. The fading you see is actually due to light polution in the cities. Sure i am out in the middle of nowhere minnesota but there is still enought light to drown out the stars. Thanks so much for all you comments, I really appreciate them.

Since I did not know how these pictures were done and now i know, hehe, i really enjoy looking at this one. Next time though you need to find a spot with no light polution. And yea, the blankets would come in handy next time...nice work

Thanks Hun.. Yeah blankets are key!!
I WILL SEE YOU IN DECEMBER!!!! tomorow......
hehe i love Aqua Teen Hunger Force!!

No special effect. That is an actual exposure. The only differance is that there was very little light so i needed a 20 minute exposure to get any color and contrast. The curves are stars in the sky moving as the earth spins!!
Thanks for the comment!
